Jelly
Ron
had heard a rumour that Malfoy was afraid of jelly. Apparently, he was disturbed by the way it wibbled. That was why Ron was currently sat at the
back of the Potions classroom trying his damn hardest to remember a spell he
had – shock horror! – researched the previous night.
His face was screwed up in fierce concentration, an expression that would have
looked entirely out of place on Ron at the best of times, let alone in his
least favourite lesson with the evil, menacing, annoying toe rag that was Snape
lecturing the class about the advantages of Diet Pepsi in comparison to Diet
Coke.
The light bulb that went ting was almost visible above the red head's
right ear. Smirking cunningly like
something that's extremely cunning, Ron stood up quickly, wand raised in
anticipated victory.
"Ooh, head rush…" He swayed briefly on the spot before regaining his composure
and, wand pointed at the ceiling, he bellowed "Wibblius Wobblium," at the top
of his voice. Ron and his wand
performed a number of complicated twirly patterns whilst he hopped on the spot
and patted his right elbow with his left hand, and a sudden flash of bright
pink light engulfed the entire room.
When the strawberry and cream flavoured smoke had dissipated, it became clear
what Ron had done.
One platinum blond student ran for his life, girlishly high pitched screams
reverberating off the old crumbly stone walls of the corridor outside the
classroom, getting quieter and quieter like when Gandalf falls down the hole
after waving his walking stick at the Balrog – oops, sorry, wrong franchise.
Ron had successfully transfigured all the tables into Rowntrees Strawberry
Jelly. Professor McGonagall would have
been proud.
